HARD DISK HEAT MANAGEMENT
Heat Dissipation Design
The Thunderbolt Series enclosures feature metal bodies that dissipate drive heat. The large surface area of the
heat sink casing absorbs all internal heat, keeping the drives safe and prolonging their life. Since LaCie's unique
design draws heat away from the internal drives, the external casing will be warm to the touch after extended
use. Please make sure that the vent on the back bezel is not obstructed and that there is a natural airflow
across the casing.
POSITION AND STACKING
2big Thunderbolt Series
In most instances, the 2big enclosure heat dissipation will be maximized when it rests on the stand in a vertical
position.
